Upon witnessing the situation, Skylar immediately grasped the truth. It seemed that the lion-tiger beast had territorial limitations and was unable to leave that specific area. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have halted its pursuit every time it chased him to that point!
After considering these facts, Skylar felt relieved. Meanwhile, Cameron had already turned pale at that moment, overwhelmed with fear. Letting out two roars, the lion-tiger beast swiftly retreated!
Skylar regretted not being able to slay Jared on the spot. However, with Jared encased in ice and the lion-tiger beast returning, Jared’s survival was undoubtedly impossible!
Although he couldn’t personally exact revenge on Jared, he still considered it a form of retribution!
With these thoughts in mind, Skylar was filled with excitement!
“Bring that technique over here. I want to take a look,” Skylar exclaimed. Cameron nodded, handing over the martial arts documentation device to Skylar.
Taking hold of it, Skylar infused a stream of aura into it!
However, to Skylar’s surprise, the documentation device remained unresponsive, and he couldn’t see its contents!
Skylar furrowed his brow as he attempted to channel his spiritual energy once again. Yet, the martial arts documentation device still showed no response!
“Could it be a discarded technique?” Skylar said, his face filled with confusion.
“What’s the situation?” Cameron asked.
“The martial arts documentation device couldn’t be opened, making it impossible to see its contents,” Skylar explained.
“Allow me to try!” Cameron suggested. He also infused a stream of spiritual energy, but the martial arts documentation device still showed no response!
Cameron was taken aback. He casually remarked, “Could it be that this martial arts documentation device can only be opened by demons? After all, this place is filled with marked aura. It’s quite possible that this is a martial arts documentation device belonging to the demons, and our human cultivators’ spiritual energy can’t open it.”
Cameron’s statement instantly enlightened Skylar. The fissure was filled with marked aura, suggesting that the technique could very well be from the demons. Given that it was a demon’s technique, it would require the marked aura of a demon to unlock it!
However, in the presence of Cameron, Skylar couldn’t directly unleash his marked aura as doing so would completely expose his identity!
Although Jared had already died, Skylar still couldn’t reveal himself. After all, he was in the Ethereal Realm, and he hadn’t fully recovered yet. Moreover, he found it quite advantageous to be an elder in the Norton family!
He had no worries about food or clothing and even had people gathering various resources for him. Living like an emperor, Skylar didn’t want his identity to be discovered so quickly!
“Stay here and keep watch. Let’s see if that lion- tiger beast makes any more moves. I’ll try to unlock the technique. If I can’t, then the deaths of our family’s disciples will have been in vain,” Skylar instructed Cameron.
Cameron nodded, not daring to refute his elder’s words.
Skylar, holding the martial arts documentation device, leaped into the air. He hovered mid-air, completely immersed in the thick, marked aura.
In that moment, Skylar let himself go, his face adorned with a ferocious grin. Then, he greedily absorbed the surrounding marked aura!
Subsequently, a surge of marked aura was infused into the martial arts documentation device. Indeed, the device began to emit a radiant glow!
However, Skylar’s body didn’t contain much marked aura. Even though the martial arts documentation device showed a reaction, he couldn’t see its contents. Skylar had no choice but to put away the martial arts documentation device and desperately absorb the surrounding marked aura!
Meanwhile, on the other side, the enraged lion- tiger beast roared. Its guarded technique had been stolen, and it seethed with anger. Roaring, it used its claws to shatter the people frozen in ice, one by one!
As the lion-tiger beast advanced toward Jared, poised to strike with its claw, a sudden burst of golden light erupted from within Jared!
The golden light radiated brilliantly, instantly melting the ice encasing Jared. The lion-tiger beast, sensing this golden light, revealed a look of terror in its eyes and continuously retreated!
Before Jared’s eyes, the spirit beast egg emerged on its own from his storage ring, radiating a golden light!
Jared slowly opened his eyes, gazing at the spirit beast egg in front of him that was radiating a golden light. His eyes were filled with astonishment!
